The LA sun sets early, and night falls quickly. 90F days give way to 72F evenings – and it’s November! This is my kind of town and I just love being here.
A perfect conclusion to a road trip for the books. I look forward to sharing more detailed posts soon.
For now, I’m leaving you with two scenes from LA, taken at 4pm today.
“Sunset on Melrose”


I’m glad you arrived safely. And I’m looking forward to your posts from California.
Thanks so much Gabriele! I look forward to sharing with you!
I heard a lot of complaints about this town, but I loved it too when I spent some time there. Nice pictures.
Thank you Shimon – glad to share with you. Did you spent time in any specific part of LA? Perhaps i can take some photos and post. Let me know!
I’ve only been to the US twice. Once to New York and once to LA where I was shooting pictures for Ford. One of my locations was in Melrose:)
Melrose – the centre of action
Great stores, media agencies, and restaurants – not a bad place to have hung out in. Thanks!
No, not New York. I love the sound of those temperatures Marina. I’m so glad that you have arrived safely. Happy House Warming! Looking forward to your posts from this new chapter!
Thanks so much Adrian! Will keep you posted on the housewarming
The temps will be high until they hit the 60s over the weekend. No winter clothes here .. yet….!
Glad you arrived safely, looking forward to all those LA posts! Andy
Thanks so much Andy! The town is a collage of neighbourhoods – all so different. I’ll need to make use of the metro system
Great sunset shots! Keep those stories and pictures coming!
Thanks so much Karen! I will try to do so
I am happy you guys made it safe. Hope to see you soon. Best of luck. Parvaneh
Thanks so much – we’ll see you on this Coast soon!
So glad you made it safe and sound. Welcome back to California! I too am looking forward to more of your trip photos.
I am looking forward to sharing with you! Thanks so much for also providing inspiration through your images
Welcome back to LA and our “summer” weather!

Bring it on say, Daisy! Even though I was sweating today. thanks for the welcome wishes!
I love Melrose and all the funky shops. I didn’t realize you were in LA. I would have invited you to Charles Flemings monthly Secret stairs walk. We saw Grand Park downtown, a new development and the designer of Grand Park gave a talk. Then my friends and I went to Olvera street and ate. They had Day of the dead celebrations with dancers and mariachis. Went in a museum with Day of the Dead artwork. We took the red line there and back. A full day. I will post later to my blog.
Melrose is cool and has added a few new shops since i was here earlier in the year! we only arrived a few days ago and are busy with a few things – so stair walking may have to wait until late Nov or Dec. When we’re settled, will definitely let you know! Thanks so much Karen!
I love the tree’s shadow on the building!
So happy you noticed that – I loved it too! Thank you!
Yes the tree shadow is terrific – full of movement!
Happy you arrived safely, Marina. =)
Thanks Karen, i appreciate that! Safe and sweating in the high temps. The tree is a character – I’m glad you like it!
Yay, you made it! Glad you got there safely!
Thanks fergiemoto, we’re here and soaking in the hot temps!
After a long trip you’re arrived at the beautiful land… My best wishes for your new life!!!
Thanks you Roberto – a new chapter to the whole journey!
Welcome home? Some of my best friends live in Sherman Oaks and once in a while we make the trek.. by plane, the old fashion way
